Chapter 792
I’m saying…” At this moment, Ellinor’s gaze was like a terrifying ghost; her lips curled into a ghastly and cerle smile, “I’m coming for your life?
After she said this, her hand shot up.
Instinctively, Mrs. Howard thought Ellinor was going for her throat. She was so scared that she stumbled backwards, almost falling, but luckily, she was caught.
“Mrs. Howard, are you okay?” It was Ellinor who had caught her and asked with concern.
Regaining her bearings, Mrs. Howard looked at Ellinor in terror. Now that Ellinor was smiling warmly, Mrs. Howard no longer found her scary at all.
How strangel Mrs. Howard even thought that what had just happened was a misperception. Her breath was knocked out of her, “What did you just do?”
Ellinor laughed. It took a while before she could say, “Mrs. Howard, I’m sorry. You suddenly offered me a tenfold raise, and I was too excited! I couldn’t help but pull a prank on you!”
Mrs. Howard felt quite offended after seeing Ellinor be so casual. After steadying herself, she pushed Ellinor away, straightened her clothes, and unhappily said, “Ms. Mendoza, I hope you can keep your sense of humor at bay when tutoring my son
Ellinor shook her finger, “Mrs. Howard, you might not know this, but education should be fun and engaging. That’s how you get kids interested, and soon enough they actually learn something.”
Mrs. Howard frowned. She didn’t understand her philosophy and said impatiently. Whatever, I just care about the results!”
Ellinor nodded, assuring her. “I understand. I won’t let you down, Mrs. Howard. I’ll work hard to improve your son’s grades.”
That was more like it.
Mrs. Howard warned her again. “Also, what happens in the Howard family is none of your business. So it’s best if you pretend that you didn’t hear what I just said to my son in his room.”
Ellinor made a zipping gesture across her lips, “Mrs. Howard, don’t worry. My lips are sealed!”
*And about the matter of me paying you extra, you can’t let Balfour know.”
Ellinor gave an OK sign, “Got it!”
Mrs. Howard waved her hand, “Alright, off you go. Hurry and tutor Byran, or he won’t finish his homework.”
*Sure thing!”
Ellinor complied and left the room as a sarcastic smirk played on her lips.
After watching the door close behind Ellinor, Mrs. Howard took a deep breath while her hand clutched her chest.
This teacher was a bit out there; she almost scared her to death!
After resting for a while, Mrs. Howard left the room, just in time to run into Patricia.
Patricia asked with confusion. “Mom? Why did you come out of this room? Where’s dad? Isn’t he supposed to be with you?”
Every time she thought of that man, Mrs. Howard felt her heart break a little.
